|
<p>This document describes the requirements, design, and implementation
|
|
details of LLVM's System Library. The library is composed of the header files
|
|
in <tt>llvm/include/llvm/System</tt> and the source files in
|
|
<tt>llvm/lib/System</tt>. The goal of this library is to completely shield
|
|
LLVM from the variations in operating system interfaces. By centralizing
|
|
LLVM's use of operating system interfaces, we make it possible for the LLVM
|
|
tool chain and runtime libraries to be more easily ported to new platforms.
|
|
The library also unclutters the rest of LLVM from #ifdef use and special
|
|
cases for specific operating systems.</p>
|
|
<p>The System Library was donated to LLVM by Reid Spencer who formulated the
|
|
original design as part of the eXtensible Programming System (XPS) which is
|
|
based, in part, on LLVM.</p>

<p>In order to fulfill the requirements of the system library, strict design
|
|
objectives must be maintained in the library as it evolves. The goal here
|
|
is to provide interfaces to operating system concepts (files, memory maps,
|
|
sockets, signals, locking, etc) efficiently and in such a way that the
|
|
remainder of LLVM is completely operating system agnostic.</p>
